New PBEM the Aussies and the Texan

[Awsric Armitage]

Well mates, here is the thread. I am just assuming that Rasputin will want to join in the three player pbem PTW game.

The proposed settings are going to be.

Scenario....snOOpys terrain X.......(just a graphical change)
World size Huge or Large up for debate
Civs 3 Random Human and 5 computers
Avg age, Avg temperature, Continents
Roaming or Restless Barbarians
Monarch difficulty


Also there was mention in another thread about adding in additional starting units. If you guys want then we can do this and redistribute the .bix file for everyone to install and then play with the additional units of maybe a couple of settlers and a few warriors to get a quicker starting position. Its all up for debate from here on out.

The starting .bix file is a modified snOOpysX terrain with 40 starting gold, 2 Settlers, 2 Workers, and a Scout for each of the 3 Human players. I think expansionists still get their extra scout but others will get one at the start but cannot build more. If there are other things like dates and oasis bonus resources terrain tiles for the deserts you like let me know and we can add them in also. Its all up for grabs as far as I am concerned.

I'm pretty easy on settings. Does each of the players need the .bix file, or only the person setting up the game?

[Awsric Armitage]

Just sent emails with the appropriate files out for Ricketyclik and Rasputin.

The new .bix files reference the snOOpys TerrainX, Lush Cities, and Industrial Sprawl art folders under the PTW/ scenarios folder. You must have those or the .bix won't display the correct art and probably will fail because the player sending the files has saved with that format. Do not know for sure but probably have to have all three. Not to worry though as all three are installed with the default install of PTW so you should have them unless you manually went in and deleted them.


Sent the 2 player and 3 player pbem turn 1 saves and both .bix's to Ricketyclik.

Sent the 3 player .bix to Rasputin.

Rasputin had a monitor go boom on him with the storms earlier this week so he is in the process of getting another and wants to join in later this weekend.

The three player turns should go Awsric Armitage, Rickety Clik, and Rasputin for sending order.

Cheers all.

[ricketyclik]

OK, all's well Awsric, turn sent to you in 2 player, but need Rasputin's email address to send him his turn...

[Awsric Armitage]

OK sending turn 2. 3950 BC.

Have a good weekend and wish me luck interviewing this weekend.

[ricketyclik]

Who are you interviewing, and what are you interviewing them about?

[Awsric Armitage]

Possible new job interview. AAA moved their main offices from California to Texas and are looking for workers. I am going to their job fair tomorrow at the Dallas/Ft. Worth International Airport here in town.

[ricketyclik]

Ah, well, the best of Texan luck to you then. Who are AAA? Battery manufacturers?
